TAKE 3

Very nice approach by Alexei there!! Be a hero, Lucy

Can we have Lucy batting here?

More awful hitting with RISP. Be a hero Quentin.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 02:31 AM) KW said he wanted a .350 OBP, then acquired guys who rarely have a .350 OBP. Not only that, but speedy slap hitters age about as gracefully as porn stars.

PK with a 325 ft single....LF defensive advantage in favor of the Rangers tonight.

This umpire has sucked so far tonight.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 02:27 AM) The Sox every day leadoff man has the same sluggling pct. as he does batting average. The everyday SS has the same on base pct. as batting average. I know its early but today is the 20th game of the year. The organization's negligence of OBP is showing up so far this season in a bad way.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 01:23 AM) I keep hearing people say that Pierre and others wont keep hitting .200 or worse, and while I dont see Pierre staying down that far, I would not be surprised if he hit aroun .230-.240 this year, and when you have no OBP ability or Slug% to go along with that low avg he will be the worst leadoff hitter for a full season (I dont see him being moved unless we get a replacement by trade and thats unlikely). It's cause they point to his previous stats, but also neglecting to realize he hit in some ballparks with a ton of room in the outfield. He's a terrible, terrible fit for the Cell.

Ely is starting for the Dodgers tomorrow. I hope he throws a shutout just to stick it to KW and Ozzie even more.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 01:20 AM) Go f*** yourself Pierre. YOu're an awful ballpalyer Sadly, he's durable as well

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 01:19 AM) enough. put me out of my misery, quit ozzie.

Awful, awful, awful, awful! Pierre might as well be playing for the Rangers tonight.

Damn, I thought Nix got enough of that.

Lucy, keep it up!

Alexei has fewer productive outs than anyone on this squad.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 01:07 AM) I think for me, it's just I can't trust this organization when it comes to play development. Let's face it, we don't develop our own players at all. Gordon Beckham was not a product of White Sox player development, he was just a stud, so I exclude him immediately. B I totally agree with this

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 02:08 AM) even vlad from first? Yes

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 01:05 AM) probably would've been just one run if lucy holds onto the strike 3 to smoak. oh well Huh? With two outs, both guys easily score there.

And Pierre misplays that. Buehrle's looked absolutely awful this season since game 1. Too bad Cardinals have no prospects, because he'd be the perfect person to trade.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 02:01 AM) Well Gordon is a young, non established kid in his second year. This is exactly the type of guy that should be coachable and someone that should be able to be fixed. And the exact person that Walker's struggled to help over the years. Why do our players always struggle in their soph seasons? Case in point, Quentin.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 12:57 AM) It would give Jerry an opportunity to fire him in person. Haha, someone be held accountability? That's never going to happen.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 01:54 AM) I can't wait until Kenny gets back from his 3 month trip to Bora Bora. Why, I don't exactly have confidence in him after the last two seasons and his acquisitions. Not really sure what he can do to improve this team with the contracts we have, the lack of prospects, and the attendance figures.

Wow, this is a disgusting offensive effort. Nothing hit hard after 4 innings. Texas isn't done hitting solo homers.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 01:51 AM) Maybe a little less time on the radio and a little more time playing baseball well . . . Yeah, those 10 minutes on the radio are killing him! He'll be fine, he's just messed up at the plate. He was streaky last year as well.
